Mine has a smell - and I may seem really weird by saying this, but I like it. It was reduced to just a mild scent when I started to use tampons last year. Since pads hold the scent in, really. Blood hits air = usually has a smell.
My bestfriend is the same as me. She likes it.
But everyone is different!
If you want to reduce the smell because it becomes over bearing, carry some feminine wipes (most likely found in your local tampon shopping aisle) and use those once in a while. But be careful, if you use them too much it could cause a PH disbalance </3 Ive used them so far and they work great for a quick fix on the go.
